Chris Sandford Joins Game Fisher’s Diary

The latest issue of Game Fisher’s Diary sees the introduction of Chris Sandford into the fold, as we investigate his fly fishing ‘Stuff’.

As regulars at Fish&Fly will know ‘Stuff’ is the name given to Chris’s quirky video magazine take on the fly fishing scene, and in the first installment Chris picks out his favourite dubbing and feathers, ties up a beautiful Buzz Fly, and then reveals his vices. That’s fly tying vices – old and new.

There’s some must watch advice for stillwater trout anglers from Total Flyfisher editor Steve Cullen, as he shows how to find and target those rainbows in cold, clear water; and reveals some of the gear that’s impressed him over the last 12 months.

There are also some great clips from some of Fishing TV’s exclusive game fishing series, including how to tackle reservoirs in ‘Fly Fishing School’, advice on Spey casting with professional instructor Eoin Fairgrieve, and another episode in our beautiful ‘Salmon Beats of the Dee’ series.
